More About Darius Rucker:

I really like his music. I never would have thought that he would take the country music road but he is so good at it. I grew up listening to him back in his hootie days ;). He still hasn’t lost his touch! His music just gets me in such a good mood!
Love his distinct voice going way back to Hootie days. Thanks for sponsoring the contest !
I love Darius Ruckers voice…. I would wear this music out!
I would love to win to give this to my husband. He loves country!
